La Villita

Open all day, this covered open-air restaurant is known throughout the area for its wonderful Sunday brunch buffet, complete with mariachi players. The rest of the week, this place remains equally enjoyable but quieter. Buffet breakfasts are followed by varied a la carte lunch and dinner menus. Guests can go lighter with burgers, sandwiches and entrée salads or more substantial with fine fresh seafood or grilled meats. Nice sea breezes cool this close-to-the-ocean retreat.
